Ben: I'm with the Niagara Evergreen Consortium, along with Gordana (Version 2.0.7). When I do a search for "King's Speech", I get zero hits returned, and the search term has the apostrophe stripped from it, "King s speech". When I do a search for "Kings speech", I get the proper results.

Trying a search on our system for a title with an apostrophe such as "boys don't cry" worked just fine without any change to the search terms. I tested this in our staff client and OPAC and both were fine. What I did notice however, is that if one were to hit the advanced search after completing the initial search, it would construct the next screen with my search terms without an apostrophe so: "boys don t cry" would show up instead. Running that search still retrieved some results on our system, but not as many. I'll do some more tests and add a note to the bug ticket if I can replicate the behavior consistently. In the meantime, I would verify that you have cleared the cache on your web browsers and staff client (admin --> for developers --> clear cache) to make sure that there aren't strange remnants in the code from before your upgrade. Then try again. -- Ben On 07/19/2011 12:16 PM, Gordana Vitez wrote: > Hi everyone, > > We recently upgraded to 2.0.7 and noticed that a search using an apostrophe in the staff client or the advanced search screen returns no results.

Is it possible that the fix wasn't committed to 2.0.7 or wasn't included in upgrade instructions?
